Virginia homeowners got a "beary" big surprise last week when they woke up to a car honk and discovered a 200-pound cub locked in their vehicle.

Officers in Roanoke County found the black bear inside the vehicle about 5 a.m. last Thursday, according to the police department. The homeowners believe the bear opened the car door to the eat treats that were inside. It honked the car horn when it realized it was trapped, police said.
